Pair whisper after party Kirsty Gallacher looks ready for love as she grabs hold of Elton John actor Taron Egerton.

The TV presenter, 42, was pictured cosying up with the newly single Rocketman star, 29, on a big night out.

The pair hit it off at a party in London on Friday before leaving in a cab together at 4am.

An onlooker said: “Kirsty seemed very taken with him. They were inseparabl­e during the party and left together.”

Mum-of-two Kirsty divorced rugby player Paul Sampson, 41, in 2014.

In April, she was spotted getting steamy with comic Jack Whitehall, 30.

The former Strictly star gave up alcohol following a drink-driving conviction last year.

Last month, Taron split with girlfriend Emily Thomas – and coped with it by shaving his head. He said: “It weirdly felt a bit like reinventio­n.” Kirsty and Taron Kirsty and Rocketman star Katya and dancer Neil We can’t wait.” Since her dalliance with comic Seann, 33, the couple have announced a new show.

Katya said: “We have a nice little project coming up. There’s cruises, dance breaks and going round teaching kids.” Somnium: A Dancer’s Dream, on stage in London in July, is based on their own love story.

Days ago, Seann broke his silence on the kiss at a gig and admitted he “f***ed up”. He said: “You spend a lot of time with your partner and we went for a drink. One thing led to the other.” Taking a pop at Neil, 35, as he boasted of his notoriety, Seann joked: “You know who I am now, motherf***ers. I’m the guy who kissed a gay man’s wife.” Then he quickly backtracke­d, saying: “I’m only joking!” Seann and Katya will dance together in the last Strictly show but have been axed from the 2019 tour. janine. yaqoob@ mirror.co.uk Katya & Seann
